Swimming Memes Novels & Stories

God, it’s been too long since something actually felt light. “What was that bitch’s name again?” he asked between chuckles. “Miss Simmons,” I replied, shaking my head. “She literally said swimmers were all going to hell because it’s a game that shows half… nudity.” I trailed off, smirking at the memory. Richard laughed so hard his shoulders shook. “Yeah… isn’t that crazy?” “Most certainly it is,” I replied, catching his eyes in the rearview mirror. He leaned back, grin wide. “So happy I could finally make you smile.”

I quickly swim to the top, pushing the loose hair off my face. “You little dick” I push him, laughter erupting from everyone’s mouths. “You love me” He smiles, wrapping his arms around me, holding me up in the water. “Somehow” I gleam as his hands finding my bun and releasing it. He slides the hair tie around his wrist, so it joins the other one on there. “Cannonball” Everleigh calls before jumping into the water right next to us. Her little swimmers have Sofia the First pictures on them.

My parents’ expressions are blank as they wait to hear more. Rerun is the first to respond. “I don’t understand. You called us all here to tell us you swam with some fish?” “Technically, dolphins are mammals, not fish,” my mom says, ever the scientist. “I’m jealous,” Plush says to Radar. “But how could you go swimming?” She looks back and forth between Radar and me to see if we’re kidding. “The water’s freezing.” “Mammals, fish, who cares?” Sneak says. “What’s so important about you swimming with some dumb dolphins?”

Tabieka nodded and rested her hands on her knees once she was done speaking. "Yeah, I heard from my Dad that it's hard to live in a place far from the water. Can you only swim in the Ocean or is freshwater fine too?" I directed the question to all of the Mermaids by glancing at each one of them. "We can swim in freshwater but only for a little bit of time. It is not really good for us." Tabieka responded with her accent being mildly interlaced into her words. "Yeah I tried skinny dipping at night in the Luveldom lake with Evan and I got a not-so-pretty rash on my bum that lasted weeks," Lizzy chuckled and shook her head as if to erase the memory from her mind.

I focused on the sound of the waves and the feel of the cool water against my skin, determined to stay grounded and enjoy the moment. Jemma and I were now in the middle of a fiercely fun swimming competition, racing to see who could reach the buoy first. We kicked and paddled with everything we had, our laughter echoing over the sound of the waves. The sun sparkled on the water as we surged forward, our muscles straining with effort. Finally, we both reached the buoy at the same time, gasping and laughing as we clung to it, our hearts pounding. We floated there for a moment, catching our breath, feeling the warm sun on our faces and the cool splash of the sea.

It has been two days since her adventurous meet with the finest specimen of the male population. There has been an altogether different energy revolving around her which was of course hard for her to understand. But anyway, she tried to do while having the time of her life in the swimming pool enjoying the starry night in her own unique way. The famous Jessie J, Ariana Grande's, and Nicki Minaj's Bang Bang filled the swimming area of the Thompson Glass House. Her hourglass figure dipped in the water and like a fish swimming across an ocean she swam in a zig-zag way halting her breath for a minute until she reached to the other end of the pool.

Technically, we did. "It's fine," I say instead, pulling out my notebook with shaking hands. "I don't care." But I do care. I care very much. By third period, the whispers have evolved into full-blown conversations that halt abruptly when I walk by. Someone's made a meme of my slap, with the caption "FINISH HIM" in Mortal Kombat font. Another edited my poolside photo onto the cover of Sports Illustrated. I keep my chin up, my sunglasses on, ignoring the looks and the not-so-subtle pointing.

"What's so important about Sunday?" "We don't get to go to school" "Well, it's also a reminder we have school tomorrow so don't get for happy about it" "We're swimming today" "No" "Yes" "No" "Yes" "No!" "Yes!" "I'm not gonna drown with you Dylan, I hate swimming okay?" "Is somebody scared of swimming?" He teased with a weird Spongebob smile on his face. "No, I'm not. I just love my life so much, I don't wanna end it by drowning"

The memory fading. "Come on don't be a wimp" She's yelling out from a large pond, "I am not a wimp" Shayne calls out, "It's freezing" he laughs. "You coming or not" she calls out swimming around, Shayne jumps, landing in the water with a big splash as he swims under water. He comes up under her, making her laugh as he pulls her to him in an embrace" the two kiss and laugh splashing around. "It's still feeezing" Shayne laughs, splashing her softly. She laughs, a sound I want to commit to memory forever.

Although they rarely impose their Alpha status on me, it still makes me feel great whenever they would act this way to me. They continued to flood our group chat with messages, asking me if we can swim later. They even sent so many emojis, most of them are crying emojis which made me burst out laughing. After a few more minutes, I decided to stop ignoring their message and typed in a reply. Me: Fine. Let's swim once there's no people anymore. Zen: Thank goodness, you responded! Zen: And sure, we'll inform you once the pool is clear :) Mirco: And you can wear your two piece if you want.
